Magical Reflection #26

Magical Reflections #26· 13/10 Make Someone Fall in Love with Magic Again There’s something we should try to achieve every time we perform magic for someone. Not for them to say: “What a great trick.” But something much harder: “I want to see magic again.” Because surprising someone for thirty seconds is one thing. Getting […]

Magical Reflection #25

Magical Reflections #25 · 06/10 Don’t Always Accept the Spectator’s Frame Hi, A few years ago, we had a rather special evening with Juan Tamariz. I say special because there were only a few of us. Just a small group having dinner and enjoying ourselves. At one point during the conversation, someone said to Juan: […]

Magical Reflection #24

Magical Reflections #24 · 29/09 Sometimes the Problem Is the Question I was with Pedro, my former business partner at La Varita Mágica, at a magic congress in Caravaca de la Cruz. By the way, we’re still friends. He’s my former business partner because he retired. Not because we ended up throwing cards at each […]

Magical Reflection #23

Magical Reflections #23 · 22/09 You don’t have to answer questions that the audience hasn’t asked yet. There’s something we magicians do that fascinates me. We don’t trust the audience.

Magical Reflections #22 · 15/09 Don’t demonstrate the same condition twice A question. When you remember a movie you watched years ago… What do you remember? Every scene? Every line of dialogue? Every twist in the plot? No. Well, maybe you do. But you’re a strange one. 😂 Normally, we remember certain things. And very […]

Magical Reflections #21 · 16/07

Magical Reflections #21 · 16/07 The reaction usually comes one second later. There’s a moment that many magicians unknowingly interrupt. And, curiously, it’s often the best moment of the entire routine. It happens right after the impossible occurs. The spectator is still processing what they’ve just seen. They look up. They search for an explanation. […]

Magical Reflections #20 09/07

Magical Reflections #20 · 09/07 Don’t do anything when you can do nothing.   There is a sentence that has stayed with me for many years. And the more I perform, the more sense it makes. It goes like this: Don’t do anything when you can do nothing. When we first start in magic, we […]

Magical Reflections #19 02/07

Magical Reflections #19 · 02/07 Could you still be doing it in ten years’ time? There’s a question I ask myself every time I learn a new effect. It’s not whether it’s a trick. Nor whether it’s difficult. Nor even whether people like it. It’s this: ‘Could I still do this in ten years’ time?’ […]
